Hi all, new to the forum and hoping you guys can help me with some advice on some gentle tweaks to my vitaras.
I do a fair bit of fishing and a little bit of shooting and after seeing a couple of the local gamekeepers using vitaras as their vehicle of choice and getting my Passat repeatedly stuck I decided to take the plunge and buy one about a year ago.
It's a 2002 grand vitara 2.0 petrol, even now it's only got 69k on the clock so I'm hoping it's got some mileage left in it! It puts a smile on my face every time I drive it and my wife loves it too, in fact she likes it so much I decided to buy her one of her own!
We landed quite lucky with this one after hearing about it through the shooting grapevine, it's a 2000plate short wheelbase vitara 1.6 petrol, it's only covered 55k and is about as good as a 15yr old vitara could possibly be. It's still early days with it though so time will tell I guess!

to

club UK

Let's see a few pics then

It seems to be a common theme people falling in love with Suzukis, once you are hooked it's hard to escape

And as Scottie says, "lets see it then".

Even though I'm not sure what the falling I blge is.

An iPhone issue I suspect.

Do you know, I was thinking that the other day! I need a new daily driver sometime in the next 2 years, and recently I realised that I've only considered Suzuki's really. My sensible hat tells me to buy a VW/skoda daily driver, but I keep coming back to a Suzuki Diesel (sorry Dan, Donkeychomp and all the other derv haters!).

I can't get the thought of a diesel Jimny out of my head. What's wrong with me?

I'm infected with zukness somehow!

Could always go for a little

car. Some of them are really economical. I keep wanting an old swift GTI but I can't. Well not until I get rid off a few

one just popped up locally cheap though., just needs an engne rebuild but I don't have the space

Welcome. I'm also in love with just about any Suzuki.

Had 2 SJs, a Jimny, and now a Grand Vitara.

Went out for some gentle greenlaning last night in the GV. Performed well. Comfy. Warm.
